    I can verify this. I've attempted it twice and there's no 5th wave that appears.

    If they're cloaked, they're lousy P'tak and should face us as warriors! :D

    I also submitted a ticket for this one. Sometimes 5th group spawns, sometimes it doesn't.

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It's hard to reproduce reliably but I think I figured out the issue. It will have to go through quality assurance and so forth so it will be a couple weeks before the fix goes live but wanted you to know it is being addressed.

    I reported this about a week ago. In my report thread, there's a link to a video playthrough demonstrating the bug, which NEVER fails to occur for me.

    the 5th wave never comes in it has happened a few times for me
    so what i do get around it is do another one twice till they fix it you can still complete the patrol just bypass it

    How is a 100% chance to reproduce hard to reproduce? o.O

    Not that I'm ungrateful for this having been taken under scrutinery. But I don't see how it could be hard to find: you enter the area, kill the rogue klingons, and when you run out of klingons ships to blow up the mission objective is at 4/5.

    Because it's not 100% for everyone? I can complete Beta Thoridor a few times before it'll bug on me. And then I can leave, reenter and it'll complete. It's not a consistant bug for me at least.

    While it happens a lot to me, it doesn't always happen, sometimes the 5th wave comes. When something only sometimes happens, even if its most of the time, it can make it much harder to track down why.

    It happened twice to me so I stopped trying. Someone suggested it was related to the change in name of the planetary system.

    This started happening to me on May 21st and I reported it to a developer then, who told me it was probably because the system was under "heavy load" and apparently forgot all about it.

    The system's name is also incorrect. It was changed in-game to "Beta Thoridar" for some reason.

    I've seen this bug as well. I felt it might be the same bug that prevents the wave of enemy ships from spawning in the Jouret system after you finish your scans sometimes.

    I did this mission earlier as I tend not to bother and do the Carraya one, or however it is spelt. Anyway I flew around the marked circle after the fourth wave, and found one of the ships in that wave was cloaked and only uncloaked and attacked me when I got close to it. It wasn't with the rest of the ships. As soon as I killed that ship the fifth wave came in.

    Take a search round and see if that is what is causing it for you too.

    This used to solve it for me, (would be one of the little fighter things had wandered off), but not anymore. Have also submitted bug report as now the mysterious 5th wave happens every single time.

    Missing NPC's has become a bit of a theme in STO since LOR, funniest one was when none of the residents would come out of the houses in Mine Trap, a whole team of people running round going WTF, COME OUT!!
